Uncategorized “Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent.” ― Victor Hugo Without it I would be lost, music truly is my solace. For that short period it removes me from my mind in such a way that I can just be and feel, without the mindful worry of the reason for the fear or sadness. I am left with pure emotion and a way to express it without having to struggle to understand what and why I am feeling as I do. Posted on January 27, 2015 by Kelsey Continue reading →

Uncategorized To dare is to lose one’s footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself. – Soren Kierkegaard Do not let the opinions of a few (or even many) keep you from pursuing your dreams and do not be afraid of taking a risk. You will only regret those chances you did not take and those dreams you did not chase. Posted on September 5, 2014 by Kelsey Continue reading →
Uncategorized When so many people doubt or put down what it is you are pursuing, it is hard to get through your own moments of doubt. To add on top of that their subtle (or not so subtle) references to something which is “easier” or “more stable” while also right there for the taking, it is near impossible. How do you not begin to think perhaps you really are living in the clouds. What you have to hold on to is that feeling of inspiration you get when you are doing what you love. Don’t let others tell you who you are…decide for yourself. Posted on August 15, 2014 by Kelsey Continue reading →
